Impella is Associated with Reduced Mortality and Cost
Legacy studies on previous generations of Impella pumps showed the use of percutaneous ventricular assist devices (PVADs), including Impella, is particularly cost-effective.
- 29-47% reduction in adverse events at 90 days (death, stroke, MI, and/or repeat revascularization)5, 6
- 58% reduction in 30-day mortality for patients with CAD7
- 44% lower in-hospital mortality for patients with higher comorbidities vs. IABP8
Impella Reduces Length of Stay and Readmissions
Impella therapy demonstrates significant cost savings and cost-effectiveness for payers and providers
